It stars Jim O'Heir as Lenny, an unfunny, aspiring standup comedian who, on a road trip to Las Vegas, picks up a mysterious hitchhiker, played by Andrew J. West. Believing himself responsible for the death of a heckler, Lenny publicly confesses, becoming an instant hit for what audiences perceive as transgressive humor.
